As Women, we are often defined by our role as mother regardless of our decision, preference or ability to become one. This exhibition seeks to explore the topic of motherhood from the perspective of women. For some, “motherhood” is a trigger for pain and anxiety while for others it is a positive experience or goal. In order to free ourselves from societal stigmas and pressure we must initiate a dialogue in our community. This project is a catalyst for thought, open to go in many directions.
